[Bug 1244] Detect auth configuration failures and don't count them against the client
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1244

Summary: Detect auth configuration failures and don't count them
against the client
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: -current
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Kerberos support
AssignedTo: bitbucket@mindrot.org
ReportedBy: simon@sxw.org.uk


The attached patch allows authentication procedures to signal that
an authentication failure is caused by misconfiguration on the server,
rather than erroneous information from the client, and so not count
that
authentication failure against the client.

It is particularly useful when servers are configured with
GSSAPIAuthentication
on, and the required keytab is not provided by the server
administrator.
